Description

本発明は、請求項１の前提部分の特徴を有する二元燃料エンジン（デュアルフューエルエンジン、二系統燃料のエンジン）の制御方法、および、請求項１０の前提部分の特徴を有する二元燃料エンジンに関する。   The present invention relates to a control method for a dual fuel engine (dual fuel engine, dual fuel engine) having the features of the premise part of claim 1 and a dual fuel engine having the features of the premise part of claim 10. .

一般的な種類として示されるエンジンは、純粋なディーゼル油または重油モード、または、いわゆる二元燃料モードで運転されてもよく、この二元燃料モードでは、普及している種類の燃料はガスであり、ディーゼル油または重油は点火を補助するためだけに使用される。この種類の内燃エンジンは、米国特許第８，６７１，９１１号で見ることができる。   Engines shown as generic types may be operated in pure diesel or heavy oil mode, or so-called dual fuel mode, in which the popular type of fuel is gas Diesel oil or heavy oil is used only to assist ignition. This type of internal combustion engine can be found in US Pat. No. 8,671,911.

この公報はノックセンサの配置構造を提供し、この配置構造によってノックの発生が検出できる。制御ユニットは、検出信号に依存して、内燃エンジンの燃焼室への気体燃料および液体燃料の量を制御できる。   This publication provides an arrangement structure of a knock sensor, and the occurrence of knock can be detected by this arrangement structure. The control unit can control the amount of gaseous fuel and liquid fuel to the combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine depending on the detection signal.

これまでの最新技術の欠点は、ノック検出に対する反応として、点火遅延が必ずしも発生するわけではない点にある。この制御戦略は、ノックは様々な理由から発生する可能性があるという事実を考慮していないため、常に目的にかなうわけではない。したがって、多くの場合、米国特許第８，６７１，９１１号に記述されているように、追加的な対策（導入されるガス量を減らすこと）を取ることが必要であろう。   The drawback of the state of the art so far is that ignition delay does not necessarily occur as a response to knock detection. This control strategy does not always serve the purpose because it does not take into account the fact that knocks can occur for various reasons. Therefore, in many cases it will be necessary to take additional measures (reducing the amount of gas introduced) as described in US Pat. No. 8,671,911.

米国特許第８，６７１，９１１号US Pat. No. 8,671,911

本発明の目的は、一般的な種類の二元燃焼エンジンを制御する方法を提供することと、より差別化された方法で、ノックの発生に反応する二元燃料エンジンを提供することである。   It is an object of the present invention to provide a method for controlling a general type of dual combustion engine and to provide a dual fuel engine that reacts to the occurrence of knock in a more differentiated manner.

この目的は、請求項１の特徴を有する方法と、請求項１０の特徴を有する二元燃料エンジンによって達成される。   This object is achieved by a method having the features of claim 1 and a dual fuel engine having the features of claim 10.

これまでの最新技術の状況とは異なり、エンジンの燃焼室に供給される第１の気体燃料の量はノックが発生するとすぐに減じられることはない。それどころか、本発明では、（二元燃料エンジンの動作サイクルに関連して）第１の気体燃料の量を（場合によっては、より高い閾値を超えるか、またはノックが消滅するまで）最初に、増加させる。本開示に関して、第１の燃料の気体凝集状態（ｇａｓｅｏｕｓ ａｇｇｒｅｇａｔｅ ｓｔａｔｅ）は、燃焼時、最初に発生しなければならないことに留意すべきである。   Unlike the state of the art so far, the amount of the first gaseous fuel supplied to the combustion chamber of the engine is not reduced as soon as a knock occurs. Rather, the present invention first increases the amount of the first gaseous fuel (in relation to the operating cycle of the dual fuel engine) (possibly until a higher threshold is exceeded or the knock disappears). Let With respect to the present disclosure, it should be noted that the first fuel gas aggregate state must first occur during combustion.

動作サイクルの間、燃焼室の総出力出力を一定に保つために、第２の燃料によって生じた動力の寄与（ｐｏｗｅｒ ｃｏｎｔｒｉｂｕｔｉｏｎ）は、例えば、導入される第２の燃料の量の削減、および／または第２の燃料を導入する時点の遅延、および／または第２の燃料の噴射特性の変更、の実施によって、相応に削減される。導入される第２の燃料の量は、準備的な量（口火の量、ｐｉｌｏｔ ａｍｏｕｎｔ）で、導入されるエネルギー量に関して、パイロット量は燃料の形式で導入されるエネルギー総量の５％以下である。   In order to keep the total output power of the combustion chamber constant during the operating cycle, the power contribution caused by the second fuel is, for example, a reduction in the amount of the second fuel introduced, and / or Alternatively, a corresponding reduction can be achieved by implementing a delay in the time at which the second fuel is introduced and / or changing the injection characteristics of the second fuel. The amount of second fuel introduced is a preliminary amount (pilot amount), and with respect to the amount of energy introduced, the pilot amount is less than 5% of the total amount of energy introduced in the form of fuel. .

言い換えると、少なくとも１つの燃焼室での燃焼は、許容限界でのノック量を保つために抑制される。従って、動作点におけるエンジンは、可能な最大比率の第１の燃料で動作することが許容される。これは一方で経済的な配慮の点で望ましく、他方、排出技術の利点でもある。   In other words, combustion in at least one combustion chamber is suppressed in order to maintain a knock amount at an allowable limit. Thus, the engine at the operating point is allowed to operate with the highest proportion of the first fuel possible. This is desirable on the one hand for economic considerations and on the other hand is also an advantage of emission technology.

有利な実施形態は、従属する請求項で定義される。   Advantageous embodiments are defined in the dependent claims.

ノック信号の強度（ｉｎｔｅｎｓｉｔｙ）は、ノック事象の頻度、およびノック事象の激しさ（ｓｔｒｅｎｇｔｈ）から決定される。高強度のノックは、例えば、高い頻度のライトノックおよび低い頻度のヘビーノックと同様に発生する可能性がある。   The intensity of the knock signal is determined from the frequency of the knock event and the strength of the knock event. High intensity knocks can occur, for example, as well as high frequency light knocks and low frequency heavy knocks.

噴射特性という用語は、時間に依存した、噴射された燃料の質量流量の分布図（ｐｒｏｆｉｌｅ、分析結果、特徴）の輪郭形状を表すために使用される。分布図の下側の領域は、噴射された燃料の総量に対応しており、たとえば分布図の輪郭形状の変更といった事項によって必ずしも変更する必要はない。噴射特性の変更は、第２の燃料の量の大部分の噴射を後に行うようなものであってもよい。「後に、後で（ｌａｔｅｒ）」という用語は、噴射事象の中の、後の時点を意味するために使用される。噴射特性のばらつきは、当業者に知られている。   The term injection characteristic is used to describe the profile shape of the injected fuel mass flow profile, as a function of time. The lower region of the distribution map corresponds to the total amount of fuel injected, and need not be changed depending on, for example, the change of the contour shape of the distribution map. The change in the injection characteristics may be such that the majority of the second fuel amount is injected later. The term “later” is used to mean a later point in time in an injection event. Variations in jetting characteristics are known to those skilled in the art.

噴射特性は、場合によっては、質量流量の分布図の輪郭を変化させることなく、噴射開始が後に起こるように、さらに変更されてもよい。言い換えると、噴射事象全体が後に行われる。   In some cases, the injection characteristics may be further changed so that the injection starts later without changing the contour of the mass flow distribution diagram. In other words, the entire injection event takes place later.

第１の燃料は、少なくとも１つの燃焼室に導入される前に、空気と混合されることがとりわけ好ましい。代替的には、第１の燃料と空気の混合は、実際の燃焼の前に、少なくとも１つの燃焼室で行われてもよい。   It is particularly preferred that the first fuel is mixed with air before being introduced into the at least one combustion chamber. Alternatively, the mixing of the first fuel and air may take place in at least one combustion chamber prior to the actual combustion.

少なくとも１つの燃焼室の前に、第１の燃料と空気の予混合が行われる場合、少なくとも１つの燃焼室に供給される第１の燃料の量は、例えば、圧力（チャージ圧力）の変化を発生させることなく、空気および第１の燃料の混合物の温度を低下させるような方法によって、増加させることができる。当然、供給される第１の燃料の量の増加は、圧力（チャージ圧力）の増加によって行うこともまたできる。   When premixing of the first fuel and air is performed before the at least one combustion chamber, the amount of the first fuel supplied to the at least one combustion chamber is, for example, a change in pressure (charge pressure). Without being generated, it can be increased by a method that reduces the temperature of the mixture of air and first fuel. Of course, the increase in the amount of the first fuel supplied can also be made by increasing the pressure (charge pressure).

さらに、（少なくとも１つの燃焼室の前で）第１の燃料が空気と混合され、第１の燃料の量を増加させるために、第１の燃料と空気の比率を増加させてもよい。この手段は、（ポート噴射バルブを用いた）ポート噴射エンジンの場合、および（ガス計量装置を用いた）混合給気エンジンの両方で実行できる。   Further, the first fuel may be mixed with air (before at least one combustion chamber) and the ratio of the first fuel to air may be increased to increase the amount of the first fuel. This measure can be implemented both in the case of a port injection engine (using a port injection valve) and in a mixed charge engine (using a gas metering device).

第１の気体燃料は、例えばメタン主体（ｍｅｔｈａｎｅ−ｄｏｍｉｎａｔｅｄ）の燃料（例えば天然ガス）、バイオガス、プロパンガス（ＬＰＧ）、気化した液化天然ガス（ＬＮＧ）、気化した液化ガス、または気化したガソリンなどであってもよい。第２の燃料は、例えばディーゼル、植物油、または重油であってもよい。   The first gaseous fuel is, for example, a methane-dominated fuel (for example, natural gas), biogas, propane gas (LPG), vaporized liquefied natural gas (LNG), vaporized liquefied gas, or vaporized gasoline. It may be. The second fuel may be, for example, diesel, vegetable oil, or heavy oil.

本発明では、それ自体が、複数回噴射（ｍｕｌｔｉｐｌｅ ｉｎｊｅｃｔｉｏｎ）を含むディーゼルまたは重油の導入で知られるこれまでの最新技術の概念が、噴射特性の制御に使用されてもよい。この場合、第２の燃料は複数の間隔で噴射される。好ましくは、ノック信号が発生した場合にこの概念が採用され、ノック信号は、第１の強度および第２の強度の間の強度のノックを示す。   In the present invention, the latest state of the art concepts known per se for the introduction of diesel or heavy oil, including multiple injections, may be used to control the injection characteristics. In this case, the second fuel is injected at a plurality of intervals. Preferably, this concept is employed when a knock signal occurs, the knock signal indicating a knock of an intensity between the first intensity and the second intensity.

上記のとおり、本発明に従って、燃焼室の全体の動力は、二元燃料エンジンの動作サイクル中、一定に保たれなければならない。それゆえ、第２の燃料によって生じた動力の寄与は、二元燃料エンジンの動作サイクルを通して、適切に削減され、統合される。ただし、全ての動力の寄与が十分に低いことが保証される限りは、例えば、相応に低効率の燃焼で、残りの噴射量を適切に後で導入することで、より多くの第２の燃料がより早いクランクシャフト角で噴射されてもよい。   As mentioned above, in accordance with the present invention, the overall power of the combustion chamber must be kept constant during the operating cycle of the dual fuel engine. Therefore, the power contribution generated by the second fuel is appropriately reduced and integrated throughout the operating cycle of the dual fuel engine. However, as long as all power contributions are guaranteed to be sufficiently low, more secondary fuel can be achieved, for example, by appropriately introducing the remaining injection quantity later with correspondingly low efficiency combustion. May be injected at a faster crankshaft angle.

本発明のさらなる詳細は、以下の図面を参照して、例示の目的で論じられる。   Further details of the invention are discussed for purposes of illustration with reference to the following drawings.

図１は概略的なフロー図で、第１の実施形態の方法を示している。FIG. 1 is a schematic flow diagram illustrating the method of the first embodiment. 図２は概略的フロー図で、更なる実施形態の方法を示している。FIG. 2 is a schematic flow diagram illustrating the method of a further embodiment. 図３は置換率に関連するラムダについてのグラフを示している。FIG. 3 shows a graph for lambda in relation to the replacement rate. 図４は二元燃焼エンジンの概略図である。FIG. 4 is a schematic view of a dual combustion engine.

図１は概略的なフロー図の形式で、第１の実施形態の方法を示している。ノックが発生する場合の２つの分岐の間の違いが描かれている。左側の分岐では、ノック強度は第１の閾値よりも明らかに大きいが（つまり、第１の強度よりも大きいノックを示しているノック信号が検出される）、第２の閾値よりも小さい（つまり、第２の強度よりも小さいノックを示しているノック信号が検出される）。その結果、燃焼室に供給される第１の燃料の量が増やされる。続いて、第１の燃料の量の増加によって引き起こされる動力の供給増加は、第２の燃料の動力の寄与の削減により相殺される。   FIG. 1 shows the method of the first embodiment in the form of a schematic flow diagram. The difference between the two branches when a knock occurs is depicted. In the left branch, the knock intensity is clearly greater than the first threshold (i.e., a knock signal indicating a knock greater than the first intensity is detected) but smaller than the second threshold (i.e. , A knock signal indicating a knock smaller than the second intensity is detected). As a result, the amount of the first fuel supplied to the combustion chamber is increased. Subsequently, the increase in power supply caused by the increase in the amount of the first fuel is offset by a reduction in the power contribution of the second fuel.

第２の燃料の動力の寄与を削減するために発生する可能な調整（ｉｎｔｅｒｖｅｎｔｉｏｎ）は、例えば（個別に、または組み合わせにより）、第２の燃料の量の削減、第２の燃料の噴射時間の遅延、第２の燃料の噴射率の変化、および第２の燃料の複数回の噴射などである。さらに、シリンダ充填（ｃｙｌｉｎｄｅｒ ｃｈａｒｇｅ）の温度の低下、またはチャージ圧力の増加などの、第２の燃料の動力の寄与に間接的に影響を与えるために可能な方法もまた存在する。   Possible interventions that can be made to reduce the power contribution of the second fuel are, for example (individually or in combination), a reduction in the amount of the second fuel, an injection time of the second fuel. The delay, the change in the injection rate of the second fuel, and the second injection of the second fuel. In addition, there are also possible ways to indirectly influence the power contribution of the second fuel, such as a decrease in cylinder charge temperature or an increase in charge pressure.

ノック強度が第２の閾値を超える場合、少なくとも１つの燃焼室に供給される第１の燃料の量の削減により影響を打ち消される（ｃｏｕｎｔｅｒａｃｔ）。このことは、図１の右方向の分岐に示されている。続いて、両方の分岐は、ノック検出ユニットへ再度戻る。ノックが検出されない場合、エンジンの管理は、これまでの最新技術に対応する通常の動力制御器によって支配されるため、ここに殊更に詳述される必要はない。本実施形態によれば、それゆえ動力制御器は、ノック制御回路と並列に配置される。ノック制御回路は、ノックが検出された場合のみ、動作を始める。   If the knock intensity exceeds the second threshold, the effect is counteracted by reducing the amount of the first fuel supplied to the at least one combustion chamber. This is shown in the right branch of FIG. Subsequently, both branches return again to the knock detection unit. If no knock is detected, the management of the engine is governed by a conventional power controller corresponding to the state of the art so far and need not be described in further detail here. According to this embodiment, the power controller is therefore arranged in parallel with the knock control circuit. The knock control circuit starts operating only when a knock is detected.

代替的な実施形態が、図２に示されている。本実施形態では、動力制御回路がノック制御回路に直列に接続されている。これは、図１を参照して記載される制御の調整の実行後、ノックが発生する場合に、このループが動力制御器へ直接導くことを意味する。よって、ノック検出は、動力制御器の一部としてみなされる。動力制御器は、ノックが検出された場合のみ、動作状態となる。ノック信号が発生しない場合、図１の「開始」点と同様の制御が実行される。   An alternative embodiment is shown in FIG. In the present embodiment, the power control circuit is connected in series to the knock control circuit. This means that this loop leads directly to the power controller if a knock occurs after performing the control adjustment described with reference to FIG. Thus, knock detection is considered as part of the power controller. The power controller is in an operating state only when a knock is detected. When the knock signal is not generated, the same control as the “start” point in FIG. 1 is executed.

図１および図２において、動力制御回路はこれまでの最新技術に準じて設計される。（例えば発電セットの）定置二元燃料エンジンの場合、例えば、トルクや回転速度のような形式で、動力のプリセット（ｐｏｗｅｒ ｐｒｅｓｅｔｔｉｎｇ）を実行することができる。自動車の二元燃料エンジンの場合、動力プリセットは例えば速度要求の形式で行われる。   1 and 2, the power control circuit is designed according to the latest state of the art. In the case of a stationary dual fuel engine (for example in a power generation set), power presetting can be performed, for example, in the form of torque or rotational speed. In the case of an automotive dual fuel engine, the power preset is for example in the form of a speed request.

図３は、第２の燃料の割合に依存した、空燃比ラムダを図示したグラフで、動力の寄与に対する百分率で表されている。グラフの原点で、第２の燃料は「ゼロ」である。異なるチャージ圧力用にセットとなった曲線が２組示されている。実線および点線で構成される下方の曲線の組はより低いチャージ圧力の場合を、上方の曲線の組はより高いチャージ圧力の場合を表す。   FIG. 3 is a graph illustrating the air / fuel ratio lambda depending on the proportion of the second fuel, expressed as a percentage of the power contribution. At the origin of the graph, the second fuel is “zero”. Two sets of curves are shown set for different charge pressures. The lower curve set consisting of solid and dotted lines represents the lower charge pressure case, and the upper curve set represents the higher charge pressure case.

実線は、全体のラムダ（ｇｌｏｂａｌ ｌａｍｂｄａ）、つまり、両方の燃料に関する空気の比率を表す。第１の燃料に関するラムダは点線で示される。より大きなラムダは希薄な混合気を表す。第２の燃料の動力の寄与における変更があったとしても、全体のラムダ、すなわち全体の混合気組成は、燃焼空気に対する理論混合比（ｓｔｏｉｃｈｉｏｍｅｔｒｉｃ ｒａｔｉｏ、ストイキ比）に関する限り一定を保つ。これは、第２の燃料の割合を増加させると共に、（点線で示される）第１の燃料のラムダを増加させることで実現される。実際のところ、ラムダの増加は、より高い割合での希釈、すなわち、混合気の希薄化（ｗｅａｋｅｎｉｎｇ）を示す。このグラフは、第２の燃料の割合が変化したとしても、どのようにして全体の空燃比を一定に保つことが可能かを明確に図示している。   The solid line represents the overall lambda, ie the ratio of air for both fuels. The lambda for the first fuel is indicated by a dotted line. Larger lambdas represent a lean mixture. Even if there is a change in the power contribution of the second fuel, the overall lambda, ie the overall mixture composition, remains constant as far as the stoichiometric ratio to the combustion air is concerned. This is achieved by increasing the proportion of the second fuel and increasing the lambda of the first fuel (indicated by the dotted line). In fact, an increase in lambda indicates a higher rate of dilution, i.e. weakening of the mixture. This graph clearly illustrates how the overall air / fuel ratio can be kept constant even if the proportion of the second fuel changes.

図４は、本発明に準じた二元燃料エンジン１の燃焼室を概略的に示している。燃焼室は吸気側および排気側を有する。給気マニホールド２（インテークマニホールド２）を経由して、燃料のＱ１ｓｔｆｕｅｌ量が単位時間内に燃焼室４に供給される。これはすなわち、第１の燃料（１ｓｔ ｆｕｅｌ）の「Ｑ点」、
である。化学エネルギーとしての動力である、単位で表されたものが、単位時間内に導入される。空気の質量流量（時間当たりの質量）もまた、燃焼室に導入され、図中では、これは、
で識別される。燃料のそれぞれの動力の寄与は、本出願に関連して極めて重要であるため、燃料の動力の寄与のために、典型的には容量分析または重量測定法で計測された最終的な供給燃料の量だけでは適正でないことをここで強調すべきである。それ自体が公知の方法により、燃焼室の燃料供給量の動力展開（ｐｏｗｅｒ ｄｅｖｅｌｏｐｍｅｎｔ）は変化してもよい。ひとつの例は点火時間の変更である。噴射特性の変更などの別の方法は、明細書で論じられている。このように、供給量は、対応する動力の寄与と等しくされているわけではなく、むしろ動力展開を変更するために可能性がある実施される方法も、同様に考慮される。 FIG. 4 schematically shows a combustion chamber of the dual fuel engine 1 according to the present invention. The combustion chamber has an intake side and an exhaust side. The Q 1st fuel amount of fuel is supplied to the combustion chamber 4 within a unit time via the air supply manifold 2 (intake manifold 2). This is the “Q point” of the first fuel (1 st fuel),
It is. The power expressed as chemical energy, expressed in units, is introduced within a unit time. Air mass flow (mass per hour) is also introduced into the combustion chamber, which in the figure is
Identified by The power contribution of each of the fuels is crucial in the context of this application, so that the fuel power contribution is typically due to the final feed fuel measured by volumetric analysis or gravimetric methods. It should be emphasized here that the amount alone is not appropriate. The power development of the fuel supply amount of the combustion chamber may be varied in a manner known per se. One example is changing the ignition time. Other methods, such as changing injection characteristics, are discussed in the specification. In this way, the feed rate is not equal to the corresponding power contribution, but rather the way in which it is possible to change the power deployment is considered as well.

第１の燃料と空気の、給気マニホールド２への供給は、黒色の矢印で明確に示されている。図はさらに、噴射ユニット５を示しており、それを経由して第２の燃料（２ｎｄ ｆｕｅｌ）は燃焼室に導入されることが可能である。単位時間当たりの第２の燃料の量は、

Figure further shows an injection unit 5, the second fuel (2 nd Fuel) is capable of being introduced into the combustion chamber via it. The amount of second fuel per unit time is
As identified in the figure. Furthermore, the second fuel supply is indicated by a black arrow.
